Cityscapes saught silence on the sidewalks
Cars conversing cause crashes and chaos
Cement poured across the meadow that's now lost
There is no end for the future
Leaves leap off trees only to be blown and swept away
The present is tomorrow's past, the future's yesterday
A chilling quilt fills the land with shades of dying grey
Where color bloomed now dead today, a debt we can't repay
Crumbled away the former empires of yesterday
As night flows through day, all else fades away
Mankind is so unkind to believe we justify our means
With sins that time will wash away,
A race became unclean, dull polish hardly gleams
Change is here in few short years,
For nothing's as it seems.
Autumn's dewy breath is frozen by Death
As life retreats to the rarities of warmth
Warning none of fading sun the winter snow has come and won
Echoing hands of time strangle every life until it's done
